Google brings new mid-range smartphone

The Google Pixel 9a takes over the design language of its larger sister models, but slimmed down in some crucial points to enable the lower entry price. This also includes the display, which is a plastic oled panel with 2424×1080 pixels resolution and a diagonal of 6.3 inches.

The display edges are a little wider in the panel referred to as the “Actua display”, while the maximum refresh rate can only be switched between 60 and 120 Hertz. The brightness of the panels provided with a cover made of Corning Gorilla Glass 3 is given in HDR operation with 1800 candela, while up to 2700 candela lace brightness should be possible.

Under the hood is the Google’s own tensor G4 Octacore SoC, which also serves in the other Pixel 9 models. The chip is always combined with eight gigabytes of RAM and a 128 or 256 GB internal flash memory. You won’t find a memory card slot here.
